The rooster's song - a short story



you know

all morning it wakes up 

and the world around


in the valley 

in the mountains and hills

It climbs on the highest branch of a tree

in the roofs


it sings aloud 

with a high-pitched voice

making a sweet noise

warning it will  dawn


the sunflower imitates following the light

other plants and animals maybe make that

at minor scale


All began with the promise

of a demigod  Prometheus

take a ray of Sun

and brought to men


He expected to promote awareness among men


The humans do not understand his intention

they believed

that the ray was the gold


So, where the human being did go

it sought golden stones


It caused problems for all

increased the desires

the interests

the jealous

The selfishness and greed


Illuminate the conscience is not possible

with competition

ignorance


The Earth people thought that gold was like God's presence


It happened many times ago


God of gods called the rooster to explain to the whole world

that the lamp of conscience is the good like the Sun brightening on the heaven


God put the cockscomb

the representation of rays

from Sun

in the top of a rooster's head

for the people to know where to start the knowledge

the conscience

and the good


The  rooster tried to accomplish God's will, trying to explain with your sing

the joy of life
